Direct interaction of the kringle domain of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) and integrin v3 induces signal transduction and enhances plasminogen activation

It has been questioned whether there are receptors for urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) that facilitate plasminogen activation other than the high affinity uPA receptor (uPAR/CD87) since studies of uPAR knockout mice did not support a major role of uPAR in plasminogen activation...

Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 impairs plasminogen activation-mediated vascular smooth muscle cell apoptosis

The role of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) in vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) apoptosis mediated by plasminogen activation was studied with the use of aorticVSMC derived from mice with deficiency of PAI-1 (PAI-1 -/- ), tissue-type (t-PA -/- ) or urokinase-type (u-PA -/- ) plasminogen activator or from wildtype (WT) mice with corresponding genetic background...
